Subject: block: Fix memory leak in rw_copy_check_uvector() handling
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=17a05cca99d952f5b4766fa48a2703548966636a;p=linux-beck.git

block: Fix memory leak in rw_copy_check_uvector() handling

Fix a memory leak in the error handling path of function sg_io()
that is used during the processing of scsi ioctl. Memory already
allocated by rw_copy_check_uvector() needs to be freed correctly.
Detected by Coverity: CID 1128953.
